Quotes

  • Contributors were not asked simply to design a composition for a date, but to respond to a specific colour and paper as an emotional stimulus.
  • Colour alone can suggest a mood, but its emotional impact changes dramatically depending on the material it sits on and the finish it carries.
  • Our long-term involvement has brought continuity, clarity and a strong editorial vision.
  • This book isn’t a portfolio in the traditional sense. Instead, it’s an exploration of Found’s approach – encompassing research, conceptual thinking and compelling visual content – offering a deeper insight into the studio’s ethos and creative process.
  • We agreed the book should be more than a typical portfolio – it needed to present the practice in a more thoughtful and reflective way.
  • Paper tells a story of its own – the colour, material and finish immediately express a certain quality and emphasise the textural side of Found’s work.
  • It sparks curiosity and suggests motion – like film – where opening the cover transitions from a cropped view to a dramatic, edge-to-edge vista.
  • It varies year to year, but generally the paper is selected in response to the creative direction and theme of the book.
  • What stands out the most is the harnessing of 365 creatives on one single theme.
  • The results really are indicative of the individuality of each mind and of each designer.
